Tips for Missing Running Dynamics Data
This topic provides tips for using a compatible running
dynamics accessory. If the accessory is not connected
to your watch, the watch automatically switches to wrist-
based running dynamics.
• Make sure you have a running dynamics accessory,
such as the HRM-Pro series accessory.
Accessories with running dynamics have
front of the module.
• Pair the running dynamics accessory with your watch
again, according to the instructions.
• If you are using the HRM-Pro series accessory, pair it
with your watch using ANT+ technology, rather than
Bluetooth technology.
• If the running dynamics data display shows only zeros,
make sure the accessory is worn right-side up.
NOTE: Ground contact time and balance appears only
while running. It is not calculated while walking.
REMEMBER: Ground contact time balance is not
calculated with wrist-based running dynamics.
Running Power
Garmin running power is calculated using measured
running dynamics information, user mass, environmental
data, and other sensor data. The power measurement
estimates the amount of power a runner applies to the
road surface, and it is displayed in watts. Using running
power as a gauge of effort may suit some runners better
than using either pace or heart rate. Running power can
be more responsive than heart rate for indicating the level
of effort, and it can account for the uphills, downhills, and
wind, which a pace measurement does not do. For more
information, go to garmin.com/performance-data/running.
Running power can be measured using a compatible
running dynamics accessory or the watch sensors. You
can customize the running power data fields to view your
power output and make adjustments to your training
Fields,
page 82). You can set up power alerts to be
notified when you reach a specified power zone
Alerts,
page 25).
Running power zones are similar to cycling power zones.
The values for the zones are default values based on
gender, weight, and average ability, and may not match
your personal abilities. You can manually adjust your
zones on the watch or using your Garmin Connect
account

Description
Stride length is the length of your stride from one footfall to the next. It is
measured in meters.
Vertical ratio is the ratio of vertical oscillation to stride length. It displays a
percentage. A lower number typically indicates better running form.

Status: Enables or disables recording Garmin running
power data. You can use this setting if you prefer to
use third-party running power data.
Source: Allows you to select which device to use to
record running power data. The Smart Mode option
automatically detects and uses the running dynamics
accessory, when available. The watch uses wrist-
based running power data when an accessory is not
connected.
Account for Wind: Enables or disables using wind data
when calculating your running power. Wind data is a
combination of the speed, heading, and barometer data
from your watch and the available wind data from your
phone.
Using the Varia Camera Controls
Some jurisdictions may prohibit or regulate the recording
of video, audio, or photographs, or may require that all
parties have knowledge of the recording and provide
consent. It is your responsibility to know and follow
all laws, regulations, and any other restrictions in
jurisdictions where you plan to use this device.
Before you can use the Varia camera controls, you must
pair the accessory with your watch
